This is an 8 year old Caol Ila single malt from the Whisky Trail series, which has its own label. It was bottled by Elixir Distillers at 60.6% ABV. The whisky was distilled on 14 March 2013 and bottled on 7 July 2021, from a single cask. The nose opens with light bonfire smoke, sand and sweet citrus, followed by lemon, faint medicinal touches, salted caramel and coconut flakes. The palate is heavily peated, with warming smoke, a touch of chilli, burnt lemon zest and black peppercorns. The finish is long and smoky, with pepper and a note of burnt honey cake.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
